Why So Skinny ?

Ok so I'm sitting here in a 70s poly shirt...and they are skinny thru the shoulders...thank goodness they are knit! I have broad shoulders but I love the color and breezy/silliness of those 70s shirts!!!!



If you were there...or if you are wearing 60s and 70s vintage clothes.....you know they are slim thru the shoulders and everywhere else...

this might explain something......

"[Biba founder Barbara] Hulanicki found her niche designing clothing for the postwar, protein-deprived young women who were growing girls when rations dictated the size of their suppers."
